[AISWorld] Reminder - Call for mini-tracks - AMCIS 2021

[Guy Pare]

Dear colleagues,

We invite the submission of mini-track proposals to AMCIS 2021, which will
be held on August 5-7 in Montreal, Canada. AMCIS 2021 will provide exciting
opportunities for participation, collaboration, and dialogue related to the
conference theme: Digital Innovation and Entrepreneurship.

If you are interested in submitting a mini-track proposal, please notice
the following important information:

·         Mini-tracks will be managed under tracks. Please visit the
descriptions of AMCIS 2021 tracks at
https://amcis2021.aisconferences.org/track-descriptions/ and identify a
related track for your submission.

·         Proposals must be submitted through the PCS system. Instructions
are available on the same web page.

·         Each mini-track should have 1-5 mini-track chairs (2-3
preferred). An individual can chair at most two mini-tracks.

·         An individual must hold only one role within a track. A person
should not be both a track chair and mini-track chair within the same track.

·         Mini-track proposals are due by October 16, 2020.

If accepted, mini-track chairs are expected to:

▪ Promote their mini-track to generate manuscript submissions to the
conference

▪ Solicit and assign reviewers for manuscripts submitted to the mini-track

▪ Provide a summary report to authors based on reviews

▪ Make recommendations to track chairs about each manuscript submitted to
the mini-track

▪ Nominate best papers and reviewers
